Chapter 104 Yuan Shu flees

Yuan Shu was stunned for a moment when he heard the news reported by Qiao Rui.

Qiao Rui led his troops to the direction of Changshan Granary. Why did he come back in the middle of the night and wipe out Lu Xuan's people so quickly?

Yuan Shu's heart was pounding.

He was a little worried, swallowed his saliva, suppressed the panic in his heart, and ordered: "Bring people in."

Not long after, the embarrassed Qiao Rui came back. His helmet fell off, his hair was messy, and he looked panicked. As soon as he entered the camp, he knelt on the ground like a mountain of gold and a jade pillar, and said loudly: "Report to the lord, I will lead you."

I led the army to the Changshan Granary to rush for reinforcements, but before I arrived, I encountered an ambush on the way. The army was defeated, please punish me, my lord."

When Yuan Shu heard this, he was furious.

Breathing, extremely rapid.

A pair of eyes are even redder.

The situation he least wanted to see happened. Qiao Rui's defeat meant that his army was completely defeated, and his hope of defeating Lu Xuan was completely gone.

Yuan Shu was furious, strode up to Qiao Rui, and kicked him out.

boom!!

Qiao Rui was kicked and fell directly to the ground, looking like he was letting himself be cursed.

"Trash, you two are useless. You are both successful and failed. Xu Shao went to Huo County, was ambushed, and fled back defeated. Now, you, Qiao Rui, were ambushed halfway on the road, and you also fled in panic.

return."

"You were all ambushed by Lu Xuan's people one by one. How wonderful!"

"Lu Xuan is in Huo County. There are only such a small number of people in total. How many people can participate in the ambush? And one of you has 15,000 people and the other has 5,000 people. Could it be that Lu Xuan has more troops than us?

?"

"You all deserve to die!"

Yuan Shu cursed loudly and was so angry that he almost went crazy.

The granary is gone!

The army is gone too!

This time he came to attack Lu Xuan, but he didn't get any benefits. Instead, he lost his troops and fell into crisis.

Xu Shao and Qiao Rui did not speak for the time being, both of them were guilty.

"Report!"

At this moment, another soldier entered.

The soldier looked anxious and reported: "General, there are a large number of Lu Xuan's troops behind the camp, coming towards us. In addition, there are also a large number of Lu Xuan's troops from Huo County, coming towards the camp."

When Yuan Shu heard the news, his scalp was numb, his heart was trembling, and he no longer wanted to curse, so he ordered: "Withdraw the troops, all retreat."

He abandoned all the bamboo slips and documents, took his concubine Feng Fangnu with him, and hurriedly evacuated.

Qiao Rui, Xu Shao and others retreated one after another.

When Xu Shao left, he left one person alone and did not leave with him.

The army camp was all fleeing.

Yuan Shu's army evacuated, and Sun Ce and Cheng Zi also evacuated. This time, Sun Ce came with great hopes, hoping for revenge. But now, Yuan Shu was defeated, and his hope of revenge was dashed again.

Without the old troops of Huang Gai, Cheng Pu and others, Sun Ce had no one to rely on for a while.

It was difficult for Yuan Shu to succeed, but Sun Ce didn't know where to go for a while, so he could only evacuate with Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu evacuated to the northeast of the camp. Not long after, Lu Xuan and his people arrived at Yuan Shu's camp, followed closely by Zhou Yu. After the two sides met, Lu Xuan and Zhou Yu stayed behind, and Tai Shi Ci took them

The black-armored soldiers continued to cover up and kill the retreating Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu was defeated and it was time to beat up the drowned dog.

Now is the best time to pursue.

Lu Xuan and Zhou Yu came to the Chinese army's main tent and counted the documents left by Yuan Shu. After counting, they found that they were all unimportant letters.

Zhou Yu shook his head and said: "My lord, it is said that troops and horses go ahead with food and grass before moving. There are not many letters related to food and grass in Yuan Shu's documents. In addition, Yuan Shu wants to attack Lujiang County, and there are basically no letters targeting Lujiang County. Based on this judgment, Yuan Shu

It’s really not that good. We don’t have enough intelligence to fight the war, and we don’t have careful thoughts.”

Lu Xuan smiled and said: "Although Yuan Shu was born in the Yuan family, in fact, he was just a dandy with some knowledge. He was extravagant and only knew about having fun. According to the news sent back by Xu Shao, he enjoyed himself in the army and drank too much.

, which is very different from Yuan Shao who came from the same origin."

Zhou Yu also nodded and said: "My lord, what you said makes sense."

Lu Xuan and Zhou Yu chatted and looked through the information. They found no important information, but they found a lot of Feixian wine in the camp, as well as the money that Yuan Shu had looted.

After Lu Xuan saw it, he shook his head and chuckled.

Yuan Shu's direction was wrong.

At this time, Zhou Tai entered the camp, clasped his fists and said, "Lord, there is a soldier outside the camp. He says he is Xu Shao's personal follower and has something to report."

"Bring it in."

Lu Xuan gave an order.

Not long after, his personal entourage entered, bowed and said: "To report to Prefect Lu, the head of the family said that Yuan Shu's chief secretary, Yan Xiang, dissuaded Yuan Shu from dividing his troops and persuaded Yuan Shu to withdraw, which angered Yuan Shu and was detained in the camp. When Yuan Shu evacuated,

I didn’t bring Yan Xiang with me. He is a talented man. Please arrange it with Prefect Lu.”

Lu Xuan's eyes lit up.

Yan Xiang is not as famous as Zhang Zhao, but he also left a mark in history. He once discouraged Yuan Shu from proclaiming emperor.

It's a pity that it was not adopted by Yuan Shu.

Such people can be used.

This time the Changshan granary was attacked, and Yan Xiang persuaded Yuan Shu to withdraw his troops, which was actually the best plan. Yuan Shu's military morale collapsed, and the army lost its combat effectiveness. If he continued to divide his troops to fight, he would be suicidal.

Lu Xuan asked: "Do you know where Yan Xiang is detained?"

"Know!"

He nodded and answered.

Lu Xuan asked Zhou Yu to continue counting the information, and he said directly: "Lead the way, I'll go see Yan Xiang!"

"Here!"

He personally replied and led Lu Xuan outside Yan Xiang's tent.

Lu Xuan strode into the camp.

Yan Xiang was reading a book. He had heard the chaos of running in the camp before, and also heard the soldiers guarding him saying that Qiao Rui and Xu Shao had fled back after being defeated. However, no one came to take him away, and Yuan Shu ignored him. Yan Xiang was there

It is here to survive on its own.

Yan Xiang heard the footsteps and looked up. He saw that the person who came was wearing armor, his body was stained with blood, and he was full of evil spirits. But the person who came was very young, a young man in his twenties, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and was extremely handsome.

"Are you Lu Xuan?"

Yan Xiang suddenly made a guess.

Lu Xuan sat down and said with a smile: "Mr. Yan's name has been admired by Lu Xuan for a long time. This time he invaded Yuan Shu's camp, interrogated the surrendered soldiers, and learned that Mr. Yan was despised and detained by Yuan Shu. Therefore, I came here specially.

Please give me a helping hand, Mr. Yan."

Yan Xiang looked cold and solemn, without any emotion on his old face, and said calmly: "Eating the king's salary is a matter of loyalty to the king. It is impossible for me to betray my lord. I accepted the invitation from the prefect Lu, and disappointed the prefect Lu.

Yeah. Presumably Governor Lu doesn’t like people who betray their master.”

Lu Xuan smiled and didn't take it seriously.

The reason why the Three Kingdoms era at the end of the Han Dynasty was so glorious and sung by countless people was because although rituals and music collapsed at the end of the dynasty, the etiquette of loyalty, filial piety and filial piety remained.

In this era, Guan Yu's loyalty was unwavering and he rode alone for thousands of miles; there was also Xun Yu's painstaking concern, even if he was planning for Cao Cao, he still cared about the Han Dynasty; here there was even Zhuge Liang who inherited the heavy responsibility of Tuogu and devoted himself to his life.

The main theme of this era is still loyalty and filial piety, so Lu Xuan's attitude towards Yan Xiang is not surprising.

After the Eight Kings Rebellion in the Western Jin Dynasty, Yi Guan traveled south, and the most fundamental loyalty and filial piety in the Southern and Northern Dynasties collapsed. Everyone in the world thought that the emperor would take turns to come to my house next year.

.

Lu Xuan's expression was gentle and he said calmly: "I heard that Yan Gong was from Jiujiang, Yangzhou. Yuan Shu did not serve Yuan Shu until he arrived in Jiujiang County. Yan Gong himself is a clean and self-sufficient person with good character. He wants to benefit the people wholeheartedly.

people."

When Yan Xiang heard Lu Xuan's words of praise, his cold and solemn expression softened slightly, and he shook his head and said: "It's just a cheap name, it's not worth mentioning. What's more, most of the news from the outside is just rumors, and they are all things that are not worthy of the name. Prefect Lu has given me the praise.

"

Lu Xuan continued: "Yan Gong wanted to benefit the people, but Yuan Shu was fond of extravagance, greedy for money and lust, wantonly amassed money and squeezed the people, and did not restrain his generals, causing the people of Jiujiang to live in dire straits."

"The more talented Yan Gong is and the more he assists Yuan Shu, the stronger Yuan Shu will be and the more people will suffer. Your original intention is to benefit the people, but in the end, you continue to persecute the people."

"Yan Gong, your loyalty is not true loyalty. This kind of loyalty is despised by everyone in the world. This kind of loyalty helps the emperor to do evil."

Lu Xuan said seriously: "I am doing justice to heaven by fighting Yuan Shu, expelling Yuan Shu, and restoring peace to the place. Yan Gong is a person who knows the general situation. Why do you insist on being loyal to a person who is ravaging the people? It's not worth it, and it's not worth it.

should."

brush!

Yan Xiang's complexion changed slightly.

He looked at Lu Xuan with a somewhat surprised look. He didn't expect that Lu Xuan's words had laid a hook in advance.

He thought Lu Xuan was praising him.

Unexpectedly, he was using his reputation to refute his loyalty, using his spear to attack his shield.
